Here you will see the continuity of a vision from the past governors, Dr. Ruth Raña Padilla and the late Gov. Carlos M. Padilla to the present leadership of Governor Atty. Jose "Papa Jing" Gambito. How we wish to see this continually in Nueva Vizcaya for the forthcoming generations- not scrapping a project just because of politics but instead continue and complement the works that were done ahead of them.
Indeed, cooperation is far better than competition and we could make our province a more progressive one by uniting all of our local officials beyond their political colors: sabay-sabay na aangat!

Five years. Three governors. One project.
From former 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗥𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗥. 𝗣𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮, who envisioned a dedicated rehabilitation center for children in conflict with the law, to the late 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗼𝘀 𝗠. 𝗣𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮, under whose administration funding and construction began, to 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗝𝗼𝘀𝗲 “𝗝𝗶𝗻𝗴” 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗼, under whose administration the facility is nearing completion—the story of 𝗕𝗮𝗵𝗮𝘆 𝗣𝗮𝗴-𝗮𝘀𝗮 spans three administrations.
The idea was to give children more than a separate place to stay. It was to create an environment where they could receive guidance, continue their education, undergo rehabilitation, and have a real chance to return to their families and communities as responsible and productive citizens.
𝙍𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙖𝙜 𝘾𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙞𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙨 traces how that vision became a ₱43.5-million provincial project—and where it stands today.
